Flora Templeton Stuart Accident Injury Lawyers successfully secured a $130,000 settlement for a woman injured in a pedestrian accident in Cookeville, Tennessee. To Maintain her privacy, we will be referring to her as C throughout the story.
How Did the Cookeville Accident Occur?
On April 13, 2025, C was walking across the Tennessee Tech campus when she came to a crosswalk with a stop sign.
It was at this moment that a driver approached the stop sign in his vehicle. Failing to see C as she was crossing the street, he began to move forward. The vehicle collided with C and rolled over her left leg, throwing her onto the hard asphalt ground of the crosswalk.
When C tried to get up, she found she was unable to bear any weight on the left side of her body.
What Injuries Were Sustained in the Pedestrian Accident?
C was immediately stabilized and taken by EMS to the local Cookeville Regional Medical Center, only to be quickly transferred to Vanderbilt University Medical Center as her injuries were too severe for the local facility.
X-rays showed that C was left with two fractures on the left side of her body, specifically along her left tibial plateau. After her stay at Vanderbilt, she was continuously monitored by a specialist as her injuries were severe enough to greatly impact her ability to walk.
